Whats the usual way of doing this job?,I t looks nigh-on impossible to get the bottom hose off, there are no taps under the manifolds, only brass plugs & I cannot even see the bottom of the Rad. to see if there is a bung or tap.---Are there ANY easy jobs on Rangie's, there are definatly some advantages to having a Series Motor, even though they lack the comforts of a R/R   :!:  :!:

i took bottom hose off no probs, did the whole job in about an hour. but i can see what you mean about the series vehicles i have owned 2 and very easy to do stuff, i sometimes think of going back to them aswell, cheap cheerfull and easy, set of parabolics and there unstoppable.

Take the bottom hose off, flush the system out and reconnect it all up.  Fill the system through the filler tube on top of the engine, quickly now, NOT through the header tank.  This way you will avoid airlocks in the heater matrix.

Not every problem can be solved with duct tape, and it's exactly for those situations we have WD 40
